She didn't cut her grass, now she's facing eviction

“I’ve never been through an eviction,” said Cashaw, who rents a single-family home in Westwood that VineBrook wants her to leave. “It just felt like everything was crumbling down on me. It was so, so, so stressful getting the notices on the door, telling me I had 30 days to vacate, me not knowing where to go. My kids, where’s my kids going to go?” In a Sept. 1 complaint, VineBrook alleged Cashaw failed to pay July rent. Cashaw responded with a counterclaim that accused VineBrook of violating a federal law against unfair debt collection practices. She’s seeking damages in excess of $25,000. The company is seeking a court finding that Cashaw’s claims are without merit.
